Abstract:Background: Increasing evidence suggests that both amyloid-β metabolism disorders in the liver and cerebral hypoperfusion play an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the relevance of liver function alterations to cerebral blood flow (CBF) of patients with AD remains unclear. Objective: We aimed to investigate the associations between liver function changes and CBF of patients with AD. Methods: We recruited 17 patients with sporadic AD. In addition to physical and neurologic… Show more
